"Why is Slookerson such a social
success and invited everywhere"
asked Powkerson ofJowkerson. "the
answer is easy" replied Jowkerson.
Slookerson confded to me his sec
ret, with instructions to convey it to
none but worthy chaps looking leg
itimate advancement. He reads
everything that he can lay his
hands on likely to be pleasant, and
cultivates both large and small talk.
He talks to none longer than he is
certain that he is affording interest.
When interest lags he goes. His
visits are short and animated, and
he makes for home the instant that
his fond of material shows signs of
running out. He is one of the earl
lest to leave at parties. He seeks
to please, and distributes atten-
tions among young and old, thus
making all like him and when he
goes all are sorry that they did not
have n longer experience with
him.
When he goes to see his best girl
she's worth 100000, and he only
his salary-he is only long enough
in her company to make her wish
an hour could be spun into a week.
Her father regards him as model
of good hours, and smiles every
time he sees him cross the threshold.
He economies himself in fact. He
isn't lavish of his gifts of sociabilty
or culture, but makes himself ap-
preciated by knowing when to go
early in the game. Everybody
wishes he would stay longer, and SO
when he returns he is gladly well
comed." "Would that there were

The Name Of Solomon.

1t is curious coincidence, says the
London Jewish Chronicle, that all
the Jewish artists Of any impor-
tance in England have had solomon
as part Of their name. We have
had Solomon Hatr the Royal
Academician, the great Abraham
Solomon, and among lesser lights
several Solomons, including Simeon
solomon. and we have the name of
Solomon doubly borne by one of
the most promising English artists
of to-day. by his "Cassandra" of
last years Royal Academy, Mr..

a position of English art but rarely
gained by so young man. He is,
too, the son of a "hard,shell" Jew,

The boy who would be Il SUCCESS
full journalist must enter the profess
sion with no vain ambition to hurry
up and get his name in print, or to
be called an "editor." He must
make up his mind to work hard and
conscientiously; and, after a number
of years, take the position in the
profession to which he seems to be
adapted, resting content Herewith.
If he comes to his work with a collie
giate education, it will be well; but
it is by no means necessary.
journalism, it must be borne in
mind, is distinct from authorship,
pure and simple. The journalist
deals with the questions of the day;
his knowledge must be ON the tip of
his tongue, or rather, at the point of
his pen,-ready for use at any NOM
ent. The author, on the other hand
can sit at home, write leisurely, re-
wise frequently, and consult books
of reference to verify his statements.
Some college-bred reporters are
occasionally both panied and sur
prised at their first newspaper ex-
periences. Such a young man may
look in the morning paper for his
first report, on which you may be
sure, he has taken the greatest pos
sible pains. He has given an elab-
crate description of the hall, the APP
pearance of the audience, and of the
lecturer he has been sent to report.
Yet he cannot find his account,
although he is sure he wrote Il col

Practice before Study.

The St. Paul Pioneer Press tells
this story about one of the promi-
nent physicians of that city. When
he was sixteen years of age he left
home to teach school in q neighbor-
ing village. He had expressed
strong taste for the medical profess
sion, and when he returned home
the next spring his father told him
that he might begin to study med
icine if he chose. "Study !" exclaim-
ed the boy: "why l have been prac-
ticing all winter" His father the n
learned that an epidemic of measles
had struck the neighborhood where
his hopeful son was teaching dur
ing the winter, and that he bought
a case of medicines, read up on the
disease and set himself up as heal
er with great success. His spare
time after school hours put in this
way had laid the foundation of his
future professional reputation.

soon broken the first unkind words
were spoken-those words which are
so easily repeated after they have
once occurred. The first quarrel
that sad era in married life-had
taken place between us, and both
felt that, henceforth, that perfect
love which we had hitherto enjoyed
could return no more. Could we
ever divest ourselves of the memory
of those cruel words {? "But we
might still be comparatively happy
if this evil occurred no more )" so
said my weeping wife, when, after a
passion of tears she offered me her
hand. Things passed on smoothly
for time but the bonds were bro
ken, and l ceased to check the ebul-
litions of anger which the lightest
circumstances called forth. Before
the second year of my marriage life
had passed away, l became that
worst of all oppressors-a house
hold tyrant. At any annoyance, no
matter how slight. If my meals
were not prepared at the appointed
hours. fla paper, or a book was
mislaid, | would give way to express
sions of anger, of which afterward, /
really felt ashamed, knowing how
unworthy they were of a man and
yet, when again angered, l repeated
them, and more violently than be-
fore.

deriul machinery it is. Not only the
larger air-passages, but the thousands
of little tubes and cavaties leading from

When these are clogged and choked

And what they do, they cannot do well.
Call it cold, cough, pneumonia, catarrh,
